Bio

Hello! My name is Anna VarnHagen. I am a current student at Western Michigan University studying Aviation Flight Science. I hold a private pilots certificate and am working towards my instrument rating. It is my dream to become a professional pilot. I am also a member of the Lee Honors College at WMU and volunteer at a local Aerospace and Science museum by helping rebuild the last SBD-1 Dauntless dive bomber airplane from WWII. A few things about me are that I love to read (all genres but especially thrillers and fiction), I enjoy playing tennis and working out, I make time to donate blood through the Red Cross every 56 days, and I have recently got into watching F1 races, go McLaren!
